Product code:
CSTVI-192
This Sheng Pu er, carefully preserved in Hong Kong, has spent two years in wet storage before continuing its maturation in dryer conditions.
Its dark and woody liquor bears the mark of these environments, as shown by its roots (beet), lichen and fennel aromas. Its texture is smooth with light and sweet flavors.
This Pu er is both ready to drink now and perfect to set aside for further maturation. A great addition to any collection.
*Please note that any cakes purchased may have slightly reduced in weight (up to 10%) due to changes in climate and relative humidity.

Teapot from Ms. Sheng | Duan Ni
The unique tone of this Yixing teapot is the result of multiple firings: six firings rather than two and this Duan Ni (yellow clay) piece is transformed into a complex material. As a finishing touch, the very last firing in the wood kiln gives rarity and richness to Ms Sheng's work.
